BMW HAS TWO PERFORMANCE CENTER LOCATIONS, ONE IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND THE OTHER IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

The facility our group had the pleasure of visiting is located on 32 acres in Thermal, California. The school offers an array of courses to BMW owners as well as NON-BMW owners, which include individuals with a need for speed, teens who are just learning to drive, as well as corporate and private groups. Note: All instructors are professional race car drivers.

While behind the wheel of these high-performance vehicles students will learn:

BMW Performance Driving School Class

Before the actual driving experience, our group participated in an hour-long safety class, where a professional drifter/instructor thoroughly discussed all of the track dos and don’t. The information was very helpful, and I definitely kept it in mind during the courses.

Drag Race & Timed Autocross (M240i)

I had so much fun driving at top speeds, doing lap after lap and burning rubber during the Drag Race experience that when it came time for the Timed Autocross I was super pumped and felt like I could take on the world! LOL!

Although I didn’t win I am still extremely stoked that I came in 10th place (best time out of 3 = 30.583). I have to give credit where credit is due, these AGG ladies can drive and are fast behind the wheel! WAY TO GO LADIES!

Prices start at $1550 for a 1-day driving school; a 2-day runs $3995. For more information click HERE.
